اهم ما يجب عليك تذكره هو ان مخك ينــمو ويتغيــر باستمرار ."

وتضطرد قدراته باستثارته وبالتدريب والتعليم وبالغذاء الجيــَد والمكملات الغذائيــة.

لم يفــت الوقــت بعد لتقرر مصيره."
_____________

كانت هذه اخر جمل اضافتها الكاتبة فى هذا الكتاب الذى يجمع بين الاستفادة والمتعة.

وهل امتع من ان تعرف بعض من اسرار هذا العضو الذى ميزنا الله به؟

وان تعرف ماذا تفعل لتحافظ عليه وتنميـــه ؟


وباختصار توجد عدة نقاط حازت اعجابى الشديد بهذا الكتاب :
__________________________________________

1*ترتيب تناول الافكار حيث تتناول الكاتبة سرد جيد لما كان فى الماضى من اهمال لدراسة المخ
ثم التطور للاهتمام والتركيز عليه حتى انهم افردوا علما جديداً يدعى
"Nutritional Neuroscience "
ومن ذلك تناولت تباعاً كل ما يمكنك عمله لتعزيز قوة مخك وجعله اكثر ذكاءا وابداعا.

2* تأييــد أغلب -ان لم تكن كل-المعلومات المذكورة بتجارب باحثى وعلماء الطب فى الجامعات العالمية



تناول هذا الكتاب ايضا :
_______________

محاولات الطب فى الابحاث للكشف عن العلاج لأمراض*:
"الزهايمر - العته- الاكتئاب"

اهميـــة المكملات الغذائية لتعويض الناقص من* العناصر الهامة التى يفتقر اليها نوعية طعامنا اليوم ,وأسرارها فى تحسين الحالة الذهنية وتأخير الشيخوخة.

*وكيف تمنع المواد الضارة من تدمير مخك



الطريف فى هذا الكتـــاب انك ستجـــد نفسك بعد قراءته تفكر وانت تأكل
"ما تأثير ما اتناوله على خلايا مخى ،هل يدمر مخى ام يبنيــه ؟ "

الكتاب ممتع جدا بيخليك تفهم ازاى بتعمل الخلايا فى المخ وايه نوع الاكل إللى ممكن يفيد مخك وايه إللى ممكن يضره وهتلافى حوالى 80% من اكلنا العادى فى اليوم مضر بعد ما خلصت قراءة الكتاب استخدمت بعض المكملات الغذائية الموجودة فى الكتاب وغيرت نوع اكلى بدرجة كبيرة وكان فى فعلا نتيجة إيجابية

[Shirin Abdel Rahman · Rating 5 out of 5]

كتاب يستحق 5 نجوم لعده أسباب منها انه يشرح موضوع علمى معقد و هو المخ و كيف يعمل و تشريح كامل لوظائف المخ بأسلوب شيق و عملى و دون ادراج مصطلحات علميه معقده.
ففي الكتاب مجموعه من النصائح و المعلومات بأسلوب بسيط تساعد الرجل العادي على فهم وظائف المخ المختلفه و كيفيه الوقايه من الامراض التي تصيب المخ مثل الزهايمر و العته و افه النسيان
أيضا مجموعه من الفيتامينات و المعادن التي تساعد المخ على العمل بصوره افضل و تحسين اداءه ووقايته من اعوامل الخارجيه التي تحد من عمله!

[Kanika · Rating 2 out of 5]

Things that could have been said in 2-3 pages have been elaborated over into 300 pages. Book in informative, but for a normal reader, the content could have been shortened enormously.

[Riham · Rating 3 out of 5]

.. يتناول الكتاب علاقة الغذاء بالصحة العقلية ، فيقدم فصلا عن الدهون كوحدة بناء للخلايا العصبية و تفاصيل الضار و النافع منها عليه
و فصلا عن الجلوكوز كوقود لازم لعمل الخلايا المخية و تفاصيل الضار و النافع منها عليه
و فصلا كبيرا عن الفيتامينات و المواد الكيميائية غير الغذائية الضرورية لعمل المخ .
و فصل اخير عن العوامل الغذائية و الصحية التى تؤثر سلبا على صحة المخ

من مشاكل الكتاب ..
أنه اصدار عام ٢٠٠٠ ، فجوة ٢٠ عاما فى مجال طبى مدة كبيرة تحتاج إلى ردمها بال updates

انحازت الكاتبة إلى نمط غذاء عصر الصيد بإعتباره أفضل من غذاء عصر الزراعة ، و لكنى كقارئ لم افهم من الكتاب كيف تم اعتباره الافضل و لا كيف تم الحكم على القدرات الذهنية لإنسان عصر الصيد ؟!

اعتمدت الكاتبة فى فصل الفيتامينات على المكملات الغذائية و قليلا ما أوردت المصادر الغذائية ، و كثيرا من القليل الذى ذكرته كان يليه تأكيد أن الكميات التى يمكن تحصيلها من الغذاء أقل من المطلوب بكثير و أن المكملات الغذائية أفضل .

إجمالا الكتاب جيد و لكن لا يصلح كمرجع نهائى

مرشح لاصحاب التاريخ العائلى لأمراض الضمور المخى كالزهايمر و غيره.

[Shlomo Freund · Rating 2 out of 5]

Started well, but then became pretty repetative. The last 10 rules on the last chapter summarises it all.

[Maddelline · Rating 2 out of 5]

The book is a presentation on the course that she conducts.

[Esma T · Rating 4 out of 5]

Beynin yapısı ve işleyişiyle ilgili bir kitap olduğunu düşünüp arka kapak yazısını okumadan almıştım ancak beynin beslenme ile olan ilişkisini ele aldığını görünce biraz bozulmuştum fakat okudukça bilmediğimiz ne kadar çok yanlış olduğunun farkına vardım. Yazar sistemli bir şekilde ve sizi ikna ederek nasıl beslenmeniz ve beyni korumanız gerektiğini çok güzel anlatmış bazı yerleri biraz fazla uzatsa da bu fazla bilgiler sizi daha çok ikna ediyor doğru beslenmeye.

[TRE · Rating 1 out of 5]

This book is not only outdated to the point that its "breakthroughs" are already well-established in the minds of most people in 2017 (book was published in 2000), but it's also written in a factoid style with very little data to back up its conclusions.

Not a single graph in the entire book or entertainments of contrary arguments, just all click-baity titles put to paper and a cover slapped on it.

Bizarre how this woman is a "New York Times Bestseller."

[Christina Rause · Rating 2 out of 5]

I made the mistake of not checking the publishing date on this book before reading, which was the year 2000. While there is some good information about vitamins, dosage, and effects on the brain, most of it is outdated and basically irrelevant. Do yourself a favor and find something more current instead.

Very insightful! I learned a great deal from this book.

I wish I had read this book when it first came out, 16 years ago. It's a game changer.

[Iva Iva-Nova · Rating 3 out of 5]

Книгата не е лоша, но информацията в нея се повтаря многократно и обемът на книгата спокойно можеше да бъде сведен на половина.

[Khawla N Mouse · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very Interesting Book

[Abdelrhman Elemam · Rating 4 out of 5]

كتاب رائع حرفيا تحدث عن الخلايا المخية وكيف تتكون وتتصل مع بعض وما الذي ناكله ويؤثر علي اتصالها ببعضها
ونصحت الكاتبه ببعض العناصر الغذائيه والمكملات التي يجب ان ناكلها ونضيفها لنظامنا الغذائي لكي نتمتع بصحة مخ افضل
عيب الكتاب الوحيد المط في بعض الاجزاء

[Pavel Kolev · Rating 4 out of 5]

If you are not familiar with the subject - the book is great. It gives an amazing overview of everything you need to know about food and your brain health. Some of the information is a bit outdated but still - great read.

[Fiordiligii · Rating 4 out of 5]

Great albeit a bit out-dated, having been published in the early 2000s. Also, it's rather popular science without an in-depth analysis.

[Meisam Sheikhi · Rating 5 out of 5]

کتاب کامل مکمل های افزایش دهنده قابلیت های مغز و هوش

[Ali Rex · Rating 5 out of 5]

FISH OIL! this book explains how to keep your brain from atrophying simply by changing your diet. the idea that once brain cells die they are gone for good is a myth of the 20th century! this book reads fast and has concise lists of facts and recommendations, all backed up by scientific studies. totally worth it.

oh, and carper explains the chemistry of the brain in such a way that even i can understand. seriously i recommend this.

[Julie Clark · Rating 3 out of 5]

Just like Dr. Andrew’s Book, this one shows that your body (and your brain specifically) is influenced tremendously by the food that you eat. It’s a fascinating read but I will say that I do not agree one iota with all her “stone age” and “evolution diet” talk. Nevertheless, some good info.

[Foxthyme · Rating 5 out of 5]

Jean is one of the best translators of scientific study to layman's language. A trove of excellent information on nutrition and health.

[Dietmom]

currently doing a self-study course from this book. It is interesting so far...especially to note how men's brains age differently than women! It's worth reading.

[Christina · Rating 5 out of 5]

I recommend this book, especially if Alzheimer's or even ADD or ADHD run in your family. Really great info. for a person of any age.

I'll talk more about it later..

Easy to understand since it is not a technical book.
